well done

as the title indicates, well done.

saturday went very well. won our first game with no problems. the d came out, got some breaks and we never looked back. 15-3

this setup a huge game against chuckwagon. stayed tight for most of the first half. in the second half they had a few miscues and the d capitalized and we hung on to win 15-9. i actually had a force side handblock in this game. weird.

game 3 against goat. we came out and got a break to start the game, i think. we at least had a d. our offense looked scared and unwilling to work hard to get open. our d was getting some turns and then also not cutting hard to get the disc. our deep game wasn't great and that put a lot of pressure to come underneath and move the disc that way. not sure if that was something our cutters were willing to do. anyway, the game was not really close at all. 15-7

this set up a game with redtide on sunday morning. they came out ready and we did not. before we know it, it's 8-3. halftime was brief and loud. i did my best to rally people up and get them fired up. we scored out of half and then our d began to play d. slowly we crawled back in it and then we were up 12-11. we received the disc at 14-13, we are up. we work it down against there zone, a lot of handler movement. phil looks at me deep, smiles, fakes, still smiling puts a gorgeous io/flattening out backhand into the endzone. goal, game. i spike the disc, take my shirt off and run around the field. felt great.

personally, i am very happy with my playing this past weekend. the work i put in helped me to play an assload of points and feel good for each of those points. i made good decisions, for the most part, and played within my means.

good season, great ending.
